The West Deck has the dual role of being a quaint, elegant restaurant and one of the most popular bar spots in town. Down a deserted wharf, the restaurant is in a charming Colonial home with decorative china and long floral drapes. The simple seafood, chicken and meat dishes are superb. The heavily draped windows attempt to shield dinner guests from the outside porch that has a very raucous bar scene in warm weather.
This airy and popular three-story restaurant and bar is as pleasant as it looks from its prominent location on Thames Street. Sip a cold sweet and salty margarita at the bar; the varied menu will please everyone in your party with dishes ranging from Mexican fajitas to fettuccine Alfredo, fresh shrimp and boiled lobster and seafood. The energetic staff deals efficiently with large groups and business functions. Don't leave without getting a mudslide for dessert.
A historical New England dining haven since 1673, a visit to The White Horse Tavern is a Newport cultural experience. In the 17th century, this tavern was used as a gathering place frequented by Rhode Island's aristocratic elite. Times may have changed over the centuries, but the historic charm remains. Satisfy your palette with local flavor; enjoy farm-to-table American cuisine, from tavern burgers to seafood preparations, while seated under beamed ceilings in front of the crackling fireplace. The tavern is a local landmark and is open year-round.
Ocean Mist is an iconic Rhode Island beach bar that promises an amazing view of the beach. The outside deck is the best place to enjoy cool breeze or watch surfers riding the waves. Cocktails, mocktails and other drinks served here perfectly complement the fun mood. There is more to Ocean Mist than a bar, it doubles up as a restaurant and club too; it offers an exciting menu comprising pizzas, omlettes, burgers and sandwiches. As the evening sets in, Ocean Mist transforms into a jazzy club that hosts live music concerts and funky parties. In the past, the likes of Squirrel Nut Zippers, Bim Skala Bim, Jeff Pitchell, Marcia Ball and Arrested Development have performed here.
